Purpose-built carrier
Designed to be smart, fast and purpose-built, the Link-Belt 370 LX utilizes a high-wide X-pattern undercarriage and oversized heavy-duty carbody to improve stability by distributing weight evenly. Built into these carriers are 460-sized turntable bearings that are designed to withstand torsional stresses encountered in heavy loading and high-duty cycle operations, providing exceptional strength and durability. And undercarriages are integrally welded for maximum power and durability on rough terrain.
The 370 LX is equipped with a 460-sized swing motor to provide increased swing torque, and an electronic engine control with ECU and electronic governor, as well as Inte-LX which maintains the engine RPMs when load demands change, providing faster hydraulic response for increased productivity. EEC also results in better fuel efficiency than mechanically-governed engines, as well as lower, cleaner emissions, low sound levels and low vibration.
Additionally, and exclusive to Link-Belt, Nephron hydraulic oil filtration results in longer component life, and is designed to minimize repair costs, potentially resulting in more than $2,000 in savings in filter and maintenance costs over 5,000 hours, according to the company. Problems associated with hydraulic system contamination are also substantially reduced with the Nephron system. Other operator efficiency features include: a large cab that is entered via a standard catwalk; six fluid-filled mountings that reduce operator fatigue; ergonomically designed Sure-Grip controls; a choice of work modes; a durable FOPS rated cab; Link-Belt’s innovative single-pedal travel which provides consistent straight-line travel for narrow work environments; and three 12-volt accessory outlets as standard. Also standard: auto engine warm-up and idle start which gradually increase engine rpm to minimize wear-and-tear on the engine, and anti-theft equipment, exclusive to Link-Belt, at no added cost.
